Spring is approaching and, in Japan, that can mean just one thingit’scherry blossomseason!
For the international art collectiveteamLab, the changing season brings a fresh look to their population installations.
Masters of creating immersive experiences, they keep things fresh by renewing their pieces as the year moves forward.
In the teamLab Forest Fukuoka museum, this means cherry blossoms will explode across several different room installations.
InShifting Valley, there is a world made of flowers that scatter across the floor and up the walls.
These flowers even form animals that, when touched, scatter into petals.
In this way, teamLab touches on the natural cycle of life.
As people walk over them, the colorful granules disperse into patterns.
Pink and yellow butterflies are the protagonists ofFlutter of Butterflies, Ephemeral Life.
It’s a beautiful piece where the power of people to create or destroy is placed centrally.
When no one is in the artwork space, it is completely dark and nothing exists, teamLab writes.
The butterflies flutter around, changing colors with the seasons, and die when they are touched by people.
All of the installations are unique and individual.
There is no pre-recorded loop.
The teamLab Forest museum in Fukuoka is celebrating spring.
All of the immersive rooms in the museum will bloom with cherry blossoms from March 1.
As visitors interact with the space, the artwork transforms.
The spring installation will last until June.
